Jacksonville, FL (April 26, 2020) – Around 9 p.m. last night, April 25, four people were taken to local area hospitals following a car accident at a Jacksonville intersection.

Police confirmed that the collision occurred when a patrol car was struck by a passenger vehicle at the intersection of Soutel Drive and Ribault Avenue last evening.

Police were able to dictate that the passenger vehicle was making a left turn at the intersection when it struck the police cruiser.

The officer, as well as three people in the other vehicle, were all taken to area hospitals with injuries. They are all expected to make full recoveries.

An investigation into the collision is currently ongoing.

Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.
